Jimmie Rodgers – Dear Old Sunny South By The Sea (Guitar)

G
In my dear old southern home

                       D
I was happy as I could be

          G                     C
Where the mocking birds sing at night while they rest

        D                           G
In that dear old sunny south by the sea

G
As my mother and dear old dad

                                D
When I left I know it made them sad

       G                  C
So I'm going back to that dear old shack

        D                        G
Where I spent my happy days as a lad

| G | C | G D | G |

G
Goodbye friends I'm leaving today

                               D
Goodbye friends I'm going far away

        G                       C
I'll be happy and free near our dear old mother's knee

        D7                          G
In that little old log cabin by the sea
